Stray Kids and BTS Skip Grammy Submissions
Stray Kids will not submit their new album for the 69th Grammy Awards, following a decision by BTS not to apply.
It has been reported that Stray Kids decided to boycott the 69th Grammy Awards scheduled for next year, following in the footsteps of BTS. A news report published on Naver stated that Stray Kids chose not to submit their new album, titled This and That, for Grammy consideration. Following the report, JYP Entertainment confirmed in a statement that Stray Kids did not make an application for the Grammy Awards.
The move follows a previous decision by BTS, who announced in July that they would not apply for Grammy consideration. That announcement from BTS occurred after the Recording Academy introduced new categories for the 2027 awards. Regarding their position, BTS stated that they hope music is listened to and loved as it is, rather than being separated by region or language.
With JYP Entertainment confirming that Stray Kids did not submit This and That, Stray Kids becomes the latest group reported to skip the 69th Grammy Awards next year after BTS chose not to participate following the Recording Academy's category updates.
